Lyrics

Yeah Said hey Hey said that Hey Look at the sky runt a hell-fir red Somebody's house is burnin' Down down down down Down down yeah Well i asked my friend Where is that black smoke comin' from? He just coughed and changed the subject And said uh, well i think it might snow some So i left him sippin' his tea And i jumped i my chariot and rode off to see Just why and who could it be this time Yeah yea yeah yeah Sisters and brohers daddies mothers standin' around cryin' When i reached the scene the flames were making a ghostly whine So i stood on my horse's back and i screamed without a whack I say oh baby why did you burn you brother's house down? Hey Hey Hey go get me something Hey Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red, lord Somebody's house is burning Down down down down Look at the sky run a hell-fire red, lord Somebody's house is burning Down down down down Well someone stepped from the crowd He mas nineteen miles high He shouts we're tired and disgusted So we paint red through the sky I say the truth is straight ahead So don't burn you self instead Try to learn instead of burn Hear what i say Yeah yeah So i finally rode away Byt i'll never forget that day Cause when i reached the vally I looked way down 'cross the way A giant boat from space Landed with eerie grace And came and take all the dead away Hey Hey Hey Hey what'd i say Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red lord Somedbody's house is burning Down down down down Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red lord Somedbody's house is burning Down down down down Look at the sky turn, look at the sky turn a hell-fire red Ooo ooo ooo Ooo ooo ooo Ooo ooo ooo Come on baby
